PRAYER REQUEST FOR MRS. DON-O
Little House on Unaka | May 5, 2008 | don-o

Posted on 05/05/2008 2:38:07 PM PDT by don-o

My wife Mrs. Don-o is having gastric bypass surgery on Thursday, May 8. If all goes well, she should be discharged on Saturday.

She is very confident in the surgeon, who has done over 1800 of these operations (four hour procedure). She is doing all the research possible on her own and expects do fabulously.

The hope is for almost instant relief from diabetes and three or four related co-morbidities. The major post-op risk, statistically, is pulmonary embolism. In her case, this risk is mitigated by the fact that she's been walking and exercising a whole lot, but exacerbated by the fact that she has a presently incurable and progressive form of COPD (rheumatoid-related bronchiolitis.)

She says if y'all would pray for her she'll breathe a lot easier (!) Thanks, everybody.

A friend of mine had this done 2-3 years ago- lost loads of weight and she looks and feels terrific!

Sending prayers for you and your medical team for a perfect surgery and a strong, speedy recovery:)

To: Mrs. Don-o; Cindy
Heavenly Father, we offer Praise and Thanksgiving that You are concerned with every detail of our lives ... not one facet escapes Your notice. You are our Watchman, whether we are asleep or awake ... You are the Great Physician, tending to our every condition ... You are our Provider, promising to supply all that we need ... You are our Sin-Bearer, else we would have no Heavenly Hope. We Worship and Praise You, for You are God.

Look with mercy upon Mrs. Don-o as she prepares for surgery ... go before her, O Lord, and make safe every aspect of this procedure. Let nothing come near that would hinder a complete and successful and uneventful recovery. May Mr. Don and his beloved approach this time with faith and confidence, for You are God.

To You be all Glory, Honor, and Praise, both now and forevermore, Amen ...
